The Power House, Skinningrove

The Powerhouse is a beautiful conversion of a former Victorian powerhouse 800 yards from the sandy beach in a former North Yorkshire fishing village.

Restored to a very high standard, this coastal holiday cottage in Skinningrove includes a magnificent entrance hall with a central ash staircase leading to a galleried landing with a leaded glass dome.

The Power House offers superb, light and airy accommodation, including a sitting room with a feature Victorian cast iron fireplace, arched windows and sea views.

Two separate kitchens provide all the facilities you will need, including a glorious Yorkshire range, a real focal point of this Skinningrove cottage, and one dining table incorporating a slate bed snooker table.

There are two sitting rooms with TVs, one of which has a double sofa bed and ramped access, which may make this delightful property suitable for accompanied disabled.

Six bedrooms include two with four poster beds and two with en-suite bathrooms, offering a touch of luxury and great flexibility over the sleeping arrangements.

A family-sized four-person bedroom has two single beds on a mezzanine floor with a distinctive porthole giving sea views. Also,  there are three further bathrooms, one of which boasts a beautiful roll-top slipper bath.
